I'm not sure exactly. You'd have to read the novel carefully to count those instances.
Hard to say for sure. It depends on various plot developments and interactions. Maybe you can re-read specific parts to figure it out.
In 'Coco', Ernesto's actions caused a great deal of family pain. He betrayed Hector, which led to the separation of their family in the Land of the Dead. Imelda, on the other hand, was hurt by Ernesto's actions and her pain was carried through generations. This family pain was central to the story as it was what Miguel had to understand and overcome to reunite his family and set things right in both the living and dead worlds.
A theme could be forgiveness. Imelda may need to forgive Hector for his past actions that caused them to part ways. And Hector may need to forgive himself too. Another possible theme is the power of memory. Coco's memories of her family and the memories that Hector and Imelda have of their past life together play a crucial role. These memories can be a source of strength, a way to keep their family alive in spirit, and a motivation for them to reconnect and move forward in their relationship.
Well, without reading the specific novel, it's hard to say exactly how the Boot family experiences pain. But if Ernesto or Imelda are part of the Boot family in the story, they could be involved in causing or experiencing the pain in various ways. And Coco might be a key figure in the middle of all this, perhaps a mediator or another victim of the family's pain - related situations.
The family's pain could be deeply rooted in their relationships. There might be complex relationships between different members, like between Ernesto and Imelda. If they have a troubled marriage, for example, it could create a ripple effect of pain throughout the family. Coco Junior might be caught in the middle of this. He could be trying to heal the family's pain, or his own actions could be influenced by the family's dysfunction, such as if he rebels due to the lack of a stable family environment.
In a coco hector and imelda fanfic, perhaps Hector and Imelda are estranged. Coco, who has a special gift to communicate with the dead, tries to reunite them. She shows Imelda the true Hector, the one who still loves her deeply despite their past differences. Hector, on his part, uses his music to touch Imelda's heart again. With Coco's help, they slowly start to rebuild their relationship. They start a small music club in the Land of the Dead where Coco often visits, and they share their stories and songs with other spirits, creating a warm and loving community.
Ernesto could be a source of pain for the Boot family if he has done something wrong like cheating or stealing from the family. Imelda might be the one who endures the pain or tries to fix the problems caused by Ernesto. And Coco might be the one who discovers the truth about the family pain. For example, if Ernesto hid some family secrets that led to pain, Coco could be the one to uncover them and start the process of healing for the Boot family.
One manifestation is the ban on music in the family. Since Ernesto's betrayal was related to music, Imelda imposed this ban which was a sign of the family pain. Another is the fractured relationships within the family. The family members in the living world didn't fully understand their connection to the dead ones because of the past pain. Also, the sense of loss and longing for the truth was a part of it. Miguel could feel this pain as he was curious about the real story behind the family's estrangement.
It's possible that in the novel, the family of Ernesto and Imelda suffers because of external factors such as social discrimination. If they belong to a marginalized group in the society depicted in the novel, they could face limited opportunities, unfair treatment, and this would have a negative impact on their family life. This could include things like not being able to get good jobs or education, which in turn would cause a lot of hardships and suffering for the family.
The word 'itchiness' had two syllables and was pronounced fāyāng (first and third sound).
He might be a victim of the family pain. For instance, if the family is going through some sort of internal turmoil related to Ernesto and Imelda, Coco Junior could be suffering as a result, like not getting enough attention or love. He could also be trying to find a way to resolve the family pain, perhaps by acting as a mediator between conflicting family members. But his attempts might not be successful, which could further complicate the situation.
